Web License Manager
Licenses that are purchased are assigned via the Internet.
By using the Web License Manager, you can assign licenses to hardware in a standard Web
browser. To conclude the assignment, the license key must be entered at the control via the
user interface.

Note
The NC start function is suppressed if a CNC option, for which no valid license key has been
entered, is additionally activated. This means that the machine can only operate on a severely
restricted basis if an attempt is made to use an unlicensed CNC option.
